How Brexit will affect Irish Property..............

The most over-used word in the English language over recent weeks has been Brexit. It is simply impossible at this juncture to assess what is going to happen. There are too many factors outside our control. From a property perspective, the job at hand is to limit the damage to the sector and identify how we as a nation can benefit. What are the views of prominent players in the industry here?

"Brexit will lead to slower growth in the economy here. This suggests weaker jobs and earnings growth which, all else remaining equal, should lead to slower house price inflation than would otherwise have been the case. Weaker sterling - which was immediately evident following the Brexit announcement - may also impact negatively as this makes it more expensive for UK buyers to purchase in Ireland.
